What is the difference between the eVo and Desire builds? I am trying to decide between MDJ FroYo Sense Clean v. 2.3 vs Mdeejay eVo Sense v2.3 rEVOlution. I isntalled both of them, they look about the same.
Is there a specific benefit of using one of the the other?
One of the key features I am not seeing in both builds is being able to Copy & Paste in Message app. And also, the feature of having numbers formated to (xxx) xxx-xxxx instead of xxxxxxxxxxx
One thing I've got to add to your topic is that i find that the eVo Sense build is faster and smother than the FroYo build (especially using MDJ's S2 kernal).
The one thing you should note though is that the eVo build is actually no longer supported (no more updates will provided for this build). Hope that helps you.

So the eVo build is no longer supported only for the build released by m-deejay right? Other developers are still updating it?
Other than performance (faster and smoother) are there any other difference?

Hi bros,
I really appreciate your work here. May anyone know when the Offical HTC Desire Froyo 2.2 ROM available?
Nexus One's Rom is good but no FM radio supported. Personally, I like HTC Sense more.
Really be? Expectations for the coming of God!
If I no mistake this is the build you looking for .... enjoy it

a nice search would of got you froyostone
here darkstone is the god first search on his post
+1 on that
Dear,
I tried the Froyostone already. Screen freeze is serious vs. Nexus One 2.2 Rom. I guess Froyostone is not the official release version.
So you're looking for an official (HTC sourced) Desire Sense build that will work on HD2...
Let me laugh a bit....
---edit---
The freezes have nothing to do with the build not being "official"
Since there's no "official" android kernel for the Leo, we have to make do with the half-hack kernel jobs that we currently have. Problem is, they come with the problems you mentioned.
Best you can do is wait for the kernels to get a little bit better.
Oh, and there's no "official" Android build for HD2 either. Both the stock Android builds, the Sense builds, and all other questinably-themed hack-jobs are PORTED to the Leo since there's not (and never will be) an "official" Android release for Leo.

Epic post is epic!
Finally some sense coming from somebody in regards to people 'complaining' about things not working without understanding we should be happy for as much as we can have Andorid running on our beloved HD2 phones!
Hello Ppl,
I havent manage to find a thread regarding this. M sorry if there exists one.
I ve been using mdeejay's, darkstones and mattc's builds and all of them where based on Desire.
Last week i ve decided to go with Revolution EVO (since he fixed 011 prob and numbers appear in the right format and it doesnt have any ads etc) from mdeejay and i ve got to say that it is by far faster, and more responsive than anything else i have tried.
I ve changed the kernel from hastarins 7.6 to latest (26/10/2010) git kernel with ported battery.
The screen rotate is almost done within a second
Lock unlock is much faster than desire's
Speed "feels" twice as fast as desire's
I ve used N1 builds in the past once or twice, but i miss the sense experience and i dont remember it being faster than desires.
Anyhow. I need your feedback.
What is your experience with it?
I've done pretty much the same as you, and I've got to say that the Evo version by mdeejay is simply amazing. It's the best version that I've used, stable and without issues.
one vote + for mdeejay's Evo - rEVOlution
for now, best rom, and best batt life near 2 days with 2g allways on and not very very intensive use..
-on op, i'm not a sense user but i liked the sharp wallpaper on mdeejays evo revo build + the smoothness of animations minus the drain in battery.
-desire, i didn't liked it.
-n1, i like cyanogenmod build for its customization.

Your choose is right . EVO Sense is the best as far as I know .
So what are the differences from a more technical reason?
What are the pro's and con's. Support, Hardware compat etc?
Sense versions. Is the desire sense newer?
If only it supported rmnet.
Not being able to use the data connection I'm paying $30/mo for... worthless.

I'm not off contract.
excellent seems that everyone shares the same feelings about mdeejay's evo build.
hope that we will be able to flash it on nand.
I really dont use winmo the last two months. I flashed a blank winmo image, and didnt set anything, not even giving my pin to it anymore.
I m really looking forward for a flashed edition.
But i notice that all the evo build didn't support chinese handwriting in serach contact list
Maybe just in my case
+1 on Evo revo really nice.

EVO and Nexus One are product names.
They both use "Android Froyo" operating system (OS).
Besides, Nexus One build uses Froyo 2.2.1 and EVO build uses Froyo 2.2, so EVO builds are order than Nexus build or CM6 build in term of OS.
so far i like HTCClay's build of cyanogenmod the best. its a clean ASOP build with ALOT of features and tweeks that you dont get in any other builds.
now for people that like " pretty" builds, you'll want one based on sence ie an evo rom is prob going to be popular.

I am using OzDroid ROM, but not last version, 'cous mine works ok..
p.s. i have 2 sd cards, and on one i am just testing new versions, an other stuff because i'm bored sometimes, but at the end, card with evo sense revolution is going back
desire hd is buggy ? such as ?
if its the camera i live with that
I have seen it asked, I have NOT seen it answered and maybe it should be, we are not all Android literate .... whats the difference between the builds. what makes Froyo differant then Evo, what makes Desire so special ? should be a sticky if people do answer... how do you have an Android QA and not have that front and center
ok im not going to get into too much detail on this because the information is readily available all over these forums....
froyo = the version of android (2.2) the one before was eclair (I think) the next one will be gingerbread..... google decided it would be a good idea to name them after food for some reason....
my guess is that the company is secretly run by a 4 year old.....
desire / evo = different models of android phones that the android builds are taken from......
Froyo means Android v2.2. This can be EVO or Desire. Desire and EVO builds are made of the HTC RUUs of the devices "EVO" or "Desire".
Please correct me if I'm wrong xD...
was too slow
nah my fault..... was too quick
Sorry I'm also new to all this. So apart from the apparent sources of the builds, how are they different in terms of functionality and compatibility to our HD2?
I have tried both the desire build and the evo build, and didn't notice much different.
However, I have heard people (including Darkstone) saying that the desire builds work better overall due to hardware similarities. As far as I know, MDJ has also stopped updating his only evo build, and is currently actively working on 3 desire builds. I'm running his evo build right now and loving it.
I'm just wondering what are the specific underlying differences between an evo and a desire build? Why would some users and clefs prefer the desire build over an evo build?
Thanks!

ahh haaa see this guy gets my question =P I know that the builds are based on Official android releases ... duh, but whats the REAL difference in what they are capable of. I to have installed many different builds here and have favorite chefs and builds I use daily, but I am still not sure what the real difference is other then minor cosmetics in most cases ....
http://www.gsmarena.com/htc_desire_...gingerbread_on_16_may_in_the_uk-news-2638.php
The above article says that HTC Desire HD and Incredible S get Gingerbread on 16 May. Today is the 17th. Anybody got any news?
I'm sure these updates could help speed up the efforts to have a fully working version of Ginger-Sense for the HD2.
It's better to stick with your favorite Gingerbread Sense ROM for updates. If your favorite ROM thread is still support by the dev, he will surely upgrade his Sense build. Instead of making a thread that won't fasten his work. Give him a week or two after the official release date to update it in his thread.
I was asking because there's no Gingerbread Sense ROM that really works.
There are only 2 Sense ROMs that are Gingerbread based: imilka's Gingerbread Sense and RafDroid HD Gingerbread. Each of them has a long list of known issues and I assume they are made from bits and pieces of other Sense ROMs.
I assumed that having a Desire HD Ginger-ROM would stimulate other developers to get on board of similar projects.
I don't own a Desire HD so I don't know if the update has been released. I thought some of the people on this forum should know more on this issue.
I'm not trying to waste anyone's time, I was just asking a legitimate question.
PS: right now I'm running the same ROM that you are running.
of course there is no fully working one yet because the devs need access tothe source code and libraries used to be able to hack them to work on our hd2

Have tried some, the stablest are the roms with the Sense 2.1 lock screen or the 3.0 one without the app-links. Pictures from the camera are a little bit unsharp with less light, camcorder works in no rom. But Dungphp said, it was working nearly. If you can live without the camera, you will have no graphical glitches. Had often start problems of the sense launcher, after install or after some reboot's.
All problems should be solved if HTC will release the code of the desire gingerbread kernel (!not desire HD, this is already released but hardware is more different).
I will check today and let you know.
Yeah i tried a few Ginger sense builds and whilst they are good they are still way too buggy for everday use not to mention the camcorder issue not resolved so i wont be flashing any more until they are stable.
Forgot the only solution to record a video. "Videocam illusion" record video's in .mov format at our sense gingerbread rom's, but the quality is not so good.

+1, returned to stable froyo sense.
The stablest one was the sbryan12144 v0.2, no installation problem's and everthing working very fast. But the glitches and the bad camera and camcorder was 1 problem too much for me.

Yes, I know what they need to make the magic happen. I'm also a developer (C++/C#/SQL Windows software), and though I have little to no experience on Android software & ROMs, I know how hard they work for everything they do.
BTW HTC should kiss XDA's feet each and every morning. I got more support on this site than I ever got from HTC.
